Family Circle magazine says there’s — “no reason” to halt this year’s recipe contest between the presidential candidates’ wives — even though Teresa Heinz Kerry now says her pumpkin spice cookies taste — “nasty.” In fact, Heinz Kerry has said the recipe isn’t even hers, insisting somebody at the Kerry campaign gave that recipe out and — “somebody [did] it on purpose to give a nasty recipe.”
I thought she would have blamed it on a vast, right-wing conspiracy, not someone in her husband’s campaign.
Laura Bush , meanwhile, is standing by her oatmeal chocolate chunk recipe. Since Family Circle had its first so-called bake-off in 1992, the winning recipe has always corresponded with who ends up living in the White House.
I had read that Hitlery had won with a variation on chocolate chip. You cannot lose with chocolate chip cookies–or some variation thereof. Why any one would put forth something with pumpkins does not have the pulse of the Joe average American people. The Kerrys are notoriously out of step; they are internationalists and like a bit more spice than us midwesterners, for example.
